steam show near Berlin
« on: May 02, 2024, 06:59:32 PM »
Tomorrow I'm going to a steam show north of Berlin.
This show is taking place again after 6 years and was always very well attended. It takes place on the site of a former brick factory. I hope it will be as beautiful as it once was. I have a few more pictures here from my last visit in 2014.

And some close ups of the steam bikes, if they are there again

It is the journey that matters, not the destination

Sometimes, it can be a long and winding road

Gibt es hier eine dampfbetriebene Currywurst Maschine?   :)

We arrived safely after a good 2.5 hours. My father and I have set up our tent and I have already walked around the site and there is a little to see. It doesn't start until tomorrow. My neighbor built a model of a bucket crawler excavator. There are also other interesting things to see. A steam ram has been standing here for 30 years. All doors and hatches are closed but if you hold your cell phone through a narrow slot you can see the interior of the steam ram.

The area where the show takes place was a former brick factory. With ring ovens for the bricks. The factory operated until 1990 and now everything is a museum. Almost all of the bricks were built in Berlin. You can get to Berlin's city center via canals. There must have been many, many millions of stones. A narrow-gauge railway runs on the site. With diesel locomotive or steam locomotive.

That would be too many small parts for me! But fascinating.
